Tau tubulin kinase is required for spermatogenesis and development of motile cilia in planarian flatworms.
Article in Molecular biology of the cell, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Cilia are microtubule-based structures that protrude from the apical surface of cells to mediate motility, transport, intracellular signaling, and environmental sensing. Tau tubulin kinases (TTBKs) destabilize microtubules by phosphorylating microtubule-associated proteins (MAPs) of the MAP2/Tau family, but also contribute to the assembly of primary cilia during embryogenesis. Expression of TTBKs is enriched in testicular tissue, but their relevance to reproductive processes is unknown. We identified six TTBK homologues in the genome of the planarian
